I do not know of any APIs to read the CPU ID.

I do not know of any APIs to read the CPU ID.  If needed, the board vendor
could add that.

In fact the reason XP can do it is that Intel CPU have CPUID instruction.

In fact the reason XP can do it is that Intel CPU have CPUID instruction. It
is by no means mandatory. Quite a few CPUs do not have it. Hence there is no
standardized way for retrieving CPU ID. Like Bruce says - it is
vendor-specific if exists

Hi:

You need to call KernelIoControl (IOCTL_HAL_GET_DEVICEID, NULL, 0,
pszDeviceID,
dwDeviceIDStructSize,
&dwBytesRet)
to get device information.

KernelIoControl(IOCTL_HAL_GET_DEVICE_INFO, (VOID*)&dwSpi, sizeof
(dwSpi),
pCorrectOutBuf, dwCorrectOutSize,
NULL))

Try this so, could get CPU ID and Platform information.
